PLYMOUTH Â? Police work doesnÂ?t get much easier than this.

A 30-year-old Plymouth woman helped local police put her behind bars Thursday afternoon, when she walked into the lobby of the Plymouth Police Department shortly before 3 p.m. and demanded to be arrested.

The woman, who lives in the 500 block of Pennsylvania Avenue, told police she was intoxicated and wanted to be arrested. Officers obliged, and began to search the woman before jailing her.

During the search, police discovered a quantity of illegal drugs on the woman.

The arrested woman is expected to face charges of public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance in conjunction with the incident.
